Biggest Record Deals of All Time
Here is a list I found at Sun News. It shows the top ten
recording deals of all time. The amount listed is in pounds,
so I don't know exactly what the US amount is. The last time
I checked, 1.65 dollars equaled one pound, so that would put
MC's deal at $99 million.
1. Mariah Carey (?0million-plus)
2. Janet Jackson (?2million)
3. R.E.M (?2million)
4. Madonna (?0million)
5. Michael Jackson (?0million)
6. Metallic (?0million)
7. Barbra Streisand (?0million)
8. Rolling Stones (?3million)
9. George Michael (?5million)
10. ZZ Top (?5million)
According to the news as it stands, it seems that MC got $20
million upfront, and she'll get a $20 million advance on each
album, as well as 25% of retail revenue. Furthermore, she gets
full creative freedom on her records. Heck, sounds good to me.
